Today has been quite a day. I left a Valentine's Day card hidden for my sweetie before I left for work, and then on the way to work I rear-ended a Mercedes SL 600. Oops. Not the best start for the day. Fortunately, the guy was REALLY nice, and there was virtually no damage to either car. He wouldn't even take my information so that I could pay to have it buffed out.

As I finished my drive to work, I realized that I hadn't had breakfast before I left the house, and I wondered if that had contributed to my inattention. Grr.

Gordon called me when he found the card, and then delivered a dozen red roses to my office - beautiful roses, and they smell incredible. And since he brought them, I was able to introduce him to my boss and my one friend here in the office.

I've started cutting back on carbs, even BTD okay snacks - I have GOT to get back to my usual weight before the wedding! Just a little more attention and a little less in the way of carbs in the last few days has made a difference, and I've lost a few pounds. I'm still working on making sure I eat enough vegetables and getting enough protein.

We're going out tonight, possibly for shabu shabu - I'm not entirely clear on what this IS, so if we go I'll explain it more later. And I know that Gordon has a present for me that he spent too much money on that he says will make me 'squeal with delight' when I open it. He's VERY thoughtful, so I'm sure I will!
